A 53-year-old man is being evaluated by mental health professionals after he drove up to the main gate of Naval Base Kitsap Bangor on Thursday morning and told security he was wearing an explosive device and had another one inside his vehicle, according to the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office.

The man was taken into custody by the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office around 2:30 p.m. No charges have been filed against the man and he was not listed on the Kitsap County Jail's in-custody list on Friday. No further details have been released by the Navy or law enforcement about the man.

No explosive devices were discovered on the man or in his vehicle after military and law enforcement bomb specialists conducted a search that lasted almost 10 hours, said Naval Base Kitsap commanding officer Capt. Alan Schrader.

On Friday, Navy Region Northwest spokesman Sean Hughes said Thursday's incident was most likely an isolated event and there should be no further cause for concern.

"Pretty clearly this was one individual," Hughes said. "This was not some greater act and that individual has been apprehended and dealt with."

Normal operations resumed across all Naval Base Kitsap installations by 7 p.m. on Thursday, with all gates open to inbound and outbound traffic.

The directive by the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office and Kitsap Department of Emergency Management to residents in the area to either evacuate the area or "shelter in place" inside their homes was lifted around 6 p.m. on Thursday.

"We appreciate the patience and understanding of those impacted by this event," Schrader said. "The safety and security of our people and the surrounding communities is our foremost concern."
